Wisdom from Hal Elrod

To Love and Create – this is the essence of life. But to be able to create the life you want, you must first be able to love the life you have. When you do, you are then able to enjoy a true sense of freedom and inspiration while engaged in the exciting process of creating the life of your dreams. If you follow these A-B-C’s of Life’s Purpose, you’ll be well on your journey already.

Accept Responsibility (For Everything)
From the economy to that difficult person in your life, to the speed of traffic during your daily commute–the external events and circumstances of life are often out of our control. Although we can’t always control what happens to us, what we choose to think and do about it is our responsibility.

This is a profound truth, that it is not what happens to us that determines our quality of life, but it is how we choose to respond to what happens that creates our experience of life–good or bad. Even if a circumstance is not your fault, how you deal with it is always your responsibility.

I agree loving yourself first is the most important step, then you can move on to creating the life you want, and loving ourselves is not something that many of us do, we always find fault in ourselves in one area or another.

Love this-how we choose to respond to what happens that creates our experience of life. That statement to me is so true and how wonderful it would be if more people could do the same! Thanks for your inspirational words.
